Legal Think Tank Article: "America's Doomsday Theory" Is Not Alarmist


The website of the French Institute of International Relations and Strategic Studies published an article entitled "The Doomsday of the United States" on November 12. The author is Romuald Ciola. The article analyzes that the view that "the United States is heading for the biggest political and constitutional crisis since the Civil War" is not alarmist. The full text is excerpted as follows:

"The United States is heading for the biggest political and constitutional crisis since the Civil War. In the next three to four years, there is a high possibility of large-scale violence, the collapse of federal authority, and the split of the country into Republican and Democratic enclaves." Recently, conservative political Scholar Robert Kagan said so in a lengthy editorial published in The Washington Post, which sparked much debate. In his view, two main threats are taking shape. First, "Donald Trump will be the Republican candidate for the 2024 presidential election," if the body allows it. Second, the former president "and his Republican allies are actively preparing to use all means necessary to ensure his victory."

Let's take a moment to look at the main points he made in The Washington Post. "America is headed for the greatest political and constitutional crisis since the Civil War," he wrote first. Is this sentence true or false? right. Very right. After what happened in Washington in January, when 78% of Republican voters consistently believe that Joe Biden did not legitimately win the election, only blind optimists staring in the face would argue otherwise. Robert then predicted that in the next three or four years, "massive violence," "the disintegration of federal authority," and "the fragmentation of the country into Republican and Democratic enclaves" could ensue.
